Opening and closing the fuel filler flap
The fuel filler flap is unlocked by pressing a button on the instrument panel.
In the driver display, the arrow next to the tank symbol indicates which side of the car the fuel filler flap is located.
Press the button on the instrument panel.
Pressure equalisation of the fuel tank involves a certain delay in opening the flap. The message Fuel tank Fuel lid is opening is shown in the driver display, and then Fuel tank Ready for refuelling.
Note
After the fuel filler flap has been opened, refuelling must take place within about ten minutes. After this, the valve that was opened by pressing the button is closed, and it is no longer possible to refuel because the pump nozzle cuts out.
If the valve is closed before refuelling is complete - press the button again and wait until the driver display shows the message Fuel tank Ready for refuelling.
After refuelling is finished - close the flap with a gentle press.
